1974 Dodge D100 Old Shop Truck Awesome Patina Rat Rod Cragar Ss No Reserve on 2040-cars
Rosedale, Maryland, United States
1974 Dodge D100 old shop truck with awesome patina Well, here is a Dodge D100 shop truck for sale. It’s so ugly that it’s beautiful. It really has that patina that people seem to be looking for in a shop truck or rat-rod. She is a reliable driver – just bump the key and go. She gets a lot of attention – if you want stealthy, this isn’t for you. The truck runs and drives well with its 225 slant six engine and automatic trans. The brakes are power assisted front disc and rear drums and I would not hesitate to fire it up and drive it around the local community here. I drive it to and from the auto parts store and other local errands. Be aware that the tires are getting old and I am seeing cracks, so before any substantial journey, it really should be tended to. The set of 4 Cragar SS wheels are straight and have a matching patina. Note also that the windshield is starting to fog, so that should be in your plans. It has new brake lines. The dash gauges (fuel and DC ammeter) work fine and the previous owner added a 3-way gauge setup under the dash including oil pressure, water temp and volts – and these work well, too. The truck runs cool and constant temp and oil pressure. The dash is in ugly shape and there is no radio and the seat is covered with a simple cover since the original seat upholstery is falling apart – perfect. The horn button is a replacement and is mounted on the lower dash area – and yes, it works. Technically, she could use some attention. The frame rails are in good shape – could use a wire brush, and it should get floor pans on both sides. I have 2 pieces of sheetmetal in the floors now and I have seen the replacement panels as cheap as $34 here on ebay. I drive it as-is. Obviously, there is some rust here and there, but that’s what gives it it’s character. Operationally, the headlights, taillights, blinkers and even the reverse lights and tag light works. The right turn signal – you have to hold the lever in position – I presume it should get a switch at some point, but it still works. The windshield wipers do not – the motor works, but the wiper linkage needs attention; you can see the passenger wiper sitting on the floor in one of the pictures. The bed was originally wood plank (and you can see this from the under-pictures) but has a piece of diamond plate in the bed now. She has a clear MD title – and in some weird twist the MVA years ago had titled it as a 1970! So, don’t be surprised when you see that on the title – the VIN matches the door, the lock pillar and the title – all matching. The VIN decode indicates it is a 1974 model. As the auction states, this is cash only (other than the PayPal deposit). If you want to pay for the entire truck via PayPal, you can – but that requires that you add the PayPal fee that would be charged to me – about 3% additional. It can be picked up from my home in East Baltimore. If you want it shipped, I can meet your assigned shipping truck locally, no problem. |

2015 Ford Mustang vs. Camaro and Challenger [w/poll]
Thu, 17 Jul 2014The horsepower wars are tightening among the Detroit Three, as the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Challenger are getting bigger, more powerful, and yes, more fuel efficient.
That came into sharper focus this week as more information was revealed about the most insane Challenger ever - the 707-horsepower Hellcat - followed quickly by Ford's in-depth showcase of the 2015 Mustang in Dearborn.
It's shaping up to be a golden age for enthusiasts, and what's under the hood is becoming more important than ever.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles recalls nearly 750k vehicles in two campaigns
Thu, 16 Oct 2014Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is recalling a total of 747,817 vehicles in the US in two separate campaigns recently added to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration database.
The first one covers about 434,581 units of the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, Challenger, Durango, and Jeep Grand Cherokee from the 2011-2014 model years with electric hydraulic power steering, the 3.6-liter V6 engine and a 160 amp alternator, according to FCA. In the affected vehicles, it's possible for the alternator to fail without warning and possibly cause the car to stall. According to the documentation submitted to NHTSA, the automaker began investigating the problem in August 2014 and has found possible evidence of one crash caused by the failures but no known injuries.
Customers will begin receiving notification about the recall next month, and obviously the repairs will be done at no cost to them.
Chrysler earns $1.7B in 2012, revises product plans for US
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Hot on the heels of Ford's earnings announcement for the year that was, Chrysler today reported a 2012 net income of $1.7 billion, up substantially from the comparatively minuscule $183 million profit earned in 2011 when it repaid its US government loans.
Chrysler's good year ended with an excellent fourth quarter that saw net income rise 68 percent from $225 million in 2011 to $378 million. Where are all those extra earnings coming from? Market share, which Chrysler saw increase to 11.4% last year on sales of 1.65 million vehicles. In fact, the Auburn Hills, MI-based automaker out-paced the industry's market growth of 13 percent last year with sales up 21 percent for the year.
The company also revealed an updated product plan for its Chrysler Group and Fiat brands that looks all the way out to 2016. It's an updated version of the plan introduced in 2009 shortly after Fiat took control of the American automaker, and includes such new additions as an Alfa Romeo model, likely the 4C, to be introduced in the US this year, as well five more Alfa models by 2016. Likewise, Fiat will be growing by an additional seven models in the coming few years.
